"All our dreams can come true – if we have the courage to pursue them”

 - W. Disney

        Welcome to my homepage. I’m a 4-th year graduate student

at Harvard University, Astronomy Department.

        My thesis advisor is Prof. Ramesh Narayan. I’m interested

in plasma physics, the theory of Magneto Hydrodynamic turbulence, approximate MHD models, plasma radiative transfer with application to accretion onto compact objects, ISM processes and star formation.

For thesis, I’m working on Sgr A* dynamic and radiative modeling.

        You can find my RESUME, lists of Articles, Presentations & Notes

on the Academic page.

        My hobbies and activities, everything informal and fun goes

to the Personal page. Thanks for your visit.

 

        I participated in the Turbulence Discussion Group.

 

   My Mathematica 7 presentation consists of

          the examples of astrophysical research and useful visualizations.
